I went home yesterday. They house was dark. Lizzy was at Marias. They folks were alone. Dad looked different. No beard. No long hair. He looked lean muscular and tanned. Like a super hero. Mom was all over him. I figured they had plans. So I took off.

I drove over to see Kaya. There was a huge outdoor party. Her neighbors were celebrating Cinco de Mayo. Kaya was in the front yard. She looked hot. Tight blue jeans. Blue tank. Lace bra. I wanted to steal her away. But Mati saw me first. She death gripped my thigh. Led me to the hopscotch. I played with the kids. Stealing glances at Kaya. She was sipping iced tea. Making me thirsty.

We talked afterwards. But we kept getting interrupted. Guys wanting to dance. Asking who I was. The normal stuff. But amplified with alcohol. I wish Kaya had been drinking. She was so nervous. Uptight. We didnt get far. I wanted to stay over. But she didnt offer. So I didnt ask. We hugged goodbye. Then I came back here.

I slept until an hour ago. The noise woke me up. Eunice was barking orders. Shes throwing a pool party barbeque. Free booze. Free food. Yeah count me in.
